I'm a member of a few Led Zeppelin fan groups (some since the early 80s) and, as most groups do, we have our own short-hand for common zep-related items. In Zep world BIGLY stands for the song Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You. So I keep seeing BIGLY in threads and then remember is not zep stuff.
It never bothered me that Houses of the Holy abbreviation HOTH is also an ice planet in Star Wars world. I love both those things.
Trump just ruins everything. Hope he goes away soon so I can enjoy Tangerine the song, color and Lifesaver flavor again.

(34,103 posts)So the connection between Trump and bigly came not from what he said, but from his inability to articulate clearly - and - what others mistakenly thought they were hearing (and then it snowballed).

(34,103 posts)He just doesn't articulate clearly - and it was so much fun to run with a word that made him sound like an idiot.
